Chapter 225 Idol Lockhart
·
Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
After the Sorting Hat sang, the ceremony officially began. Professor McGonagall walked to the middle and unfolded the parchment in her hand.
"Joe Avery!" she raised her head and read aloud.
A boy who seemed to have a bad temper came out of the team, sat on a three-legged stool, and put on the sorting hat.
The Avery family is one of the 28 pure-blooded holy families, and is also one of the Death Eater families.
The Sorting Hat shouted without hesitation: "Slytherin!"
There was a commotion at the Slytherin table, and Avery took off the Sorting Hat and ran over there quickly.
At this time, Filch hurried in from the small door next to the teacher's desk and whispered something beside Dumbledore.
Dumbledore frowned slightly, glanced around the four long tables, and turned his attention to Professor Snape.
Professor Snape, the tool man, looked a little reluctant, but he still stood up and followed Filch away.
Glenn watched him leave, feeling relieved.
As expected, Harry and Ron had successfully arrived at Hogwarts.Of course, the landing may be a little bumpy.
Of course, Glenn had not forgotten about Ron breaking his wand. His new wand was kept in the suitcase, just waiting for the right opportunity to help him out.
This wave, at least 5000 exchange coins will be spent for nothing.
Professor Snape's departure did not interrupt the sorting ceremony, and Professor McGonagall continued to read the names on the parchment.
"Colin Creevey!"
Colin, the little fanboy, put the Sorting Hat on his head with some excitement, and the wide brim of the hat covered the expression on his face.
"Gryffindor!"
As expected, after only a few seconds, the Sorting Hat made its decision and shouted loudly.
The Gryffindor table burst into cheers. He took off his hat and put it back where it belonged, and walked happily in the direction of the cheers.
...
After several unfamiliar names in a row, Professor McGonagall read out the last name starting with the letter "K".
"Luna Lovegood!"
Crazy girl Luna walked out of the crowd, sat on the three-legged stool with a dazed look on her face, and put on the Sorting Hat.
The Sorting Hat's big mouth opened and closed slightly, seeming a little tangled.
Based on Luna's character, it's hard to say whether she should belong to Gryffindor or Ravenclaw.
It hesitated for a while and finally made a decision.
"Ravenclaw!"
As a prefect, Penello actively organized the eaglets at the long table to cheer for her, and Qiu also gave her a kind smile.Luna sat gently at the table, with a grateful look on her face, and a pair of carrot earrings swaying slightly.
The ceremony is still going on, and soon it will be——
"Ginny Weasley!"
Ginny took a special look at the Gryffindor table, but couldn't find Harry, so she put on the Sorting Hat with some regret.
It was obvious that she really wanted Harry to witness the moment of her sorting.
As the seventh Weasley in ten years, the Sorting Hat didn't even need to think before he reacted and declared: "Gryffindor!"
Led by the twins, the Gryffindor table erupted into the loudest cheers of the night.
At the same time, Professor Snape had returned to the Great Hall and was crossing his arms, waiting for the Sorting Ceremony to end.He seemed to be in a good mood after leaving the table this time, with a somewhat proud look on his face.
When the Sorting Hat read out the sorting result of the last freshman, Professor McGonagall stopped him before he picked up the three-legged stool and left.
The two whispered something, and Professor McGonagall changed her expression on the spot and followed him away in a hurry, not even taking the three-legged stool with her.
Dumbledore glanced thoughtfully in the direction the two left and stood up.
Seeing him getting up, the young wizards who were chatting quickly stopped talking, and the auditorium quickly became quiet.
"We've been running around all day. If I guess correctly, everyone should be starving by now, right?"
The principal looked at everyone with a smile and said softly.
The little wizards nodded one after another, looking longingly at the empty exquisite dinner plates on the table.
"In that case, I will only say one word -" Dumbledore glanced at the expectant eyes of the students and said loudly, "Eat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all kinds of delicacies that the house elves had prepared appeared on the table, and the auditorium instantly burst into cheers.
Dumbledore showed a kind smile and left through the door next to the teacher's desk.
"Tell me, where did Dumbledore go in such a hurry to leave?" Qiu picked up a few prawns with a spoon and put them on Glenn's dinner plate, and asked casually.
"Nine times out of ten, we are looking for Harry and the others," Glenn looked up and replied, "Filch just called Professor Snape away, probably because Harry and the others got into some trouble again."
"Getting into trouble?" Qiu was slightly startled, "They missed the train. If they get into trouble again, they won't really be expelled."
Glenn smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, Dumbledore will not fire Harry."
As he spoke, he poured her a glass of pumpkin juice.
Not long after, Dumbledore and Professor Snape returned to the auditorium together. Professor Snape was obviously in a much worse mood than before, with a poker face.
Dumbledore pointed to the custard tart on the table with a smile, but received no response.
The hungry little wizards finally filled their stomachs after a good meal and started chatting.The main meals on the table were also replaced by desserts for them to enjoy as they pleased.
After almost everyone put down their knives and forks, Dumbledore stood up again and swept away all the leftovers on the table.
"Before everyone goes back to rest, I need to say a few words."
He blinked and said loudly.
"Welcome everyone to Hogwarts in the new school year!"
The little wizards applauded and waited for his opening speech.
"First, we want to announce some notices and precautions."
"First of all, it is my great pleasure to announce that in the new year we will have a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
He looked back at the staff table, preparing to introduce it, but before he could say the name, a chorus of female voices came from the audience.
"Gideroy Lockhart!"
Lockhart, wearing an aqua robe, stood up and waved, with a textbook smile on his face, showing eight standard teeth.
"It seems that you have all recognized our new professor." Dumbledore smiled and said playfully, "Compared to this old guy like me, his popularity is indeed not higher."
Professor Snape glanced sideways at Lockhart, who was still smiling and waving, his eyes slightly cold.
Dumbledore waited quietly for the screams and cheers from the audience to end before continuing to talk about the precautions.But it's obvious that most people's attention is not focused here.
"Okay! In order not to affect everyone's rest time, I announce..."
Dumbledore seemed to understand everyone's mood, and quickly ended his speech and announced.
"The party is over!"
"Joe Avery!" she raised her head and read aloud.
A boy who seemed to have a bad temper came out of the team, sat on a three-legged stool, and put on the sorting hat.
